Chapter 1104: Where to Stop
The old lady of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is the oldest among those present.
Because when she was young, she once mentioned going into battle to kill the enemy, and she had the reputation of being a heroine.
Even the emperor showed some courtesy to the old lady.
Perhaps because she had killed enemies when she was young, the old lady began to worship Buddha with all her heart as she grew older, saying that she wanted to eliminate the karma on her body.
The reason I was able to come to the villa of Prince Rong’s Mansion today was because I accidentally learned that the golden lotus in Prince Rong’s Mansion had bloomed.
I came here just for this golden lotus.
At this time, the old lady of the Zhenguo Mansion looked at the golden lotus in the water and said with a smile, "I wonder which girl would have such a great opportunity? I'm afraid that without great fortune and great merit, it would be impossible to keep this golden lotus in front of the Buddha..."
For example, even though I have been worshipping Buddha for many years, the golden lotus in front of me still does not pause for a moment...
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, even Princess Rong's gaze became eager.
Madam Xia whispered to Old Madam Su, "I think this golden lotus will definitely stop in front of Fu Ya."
The tone was extremely certain, the expression extremely determined.
Old Madam Su: "... Stop talking nonsense! This lotus was brought out by the princess, so it should naturally be placed in front of the two Xuanyuan girls..."
The princess brought out the lotus, obviously to attract attention for her daughter.
Otherwise, how could anyone be willing to cut off the golden lotus that blooms once every hundred years?
Anyway, Mrs. Su herself couldn't bear to do it.
Mrs. Xia naturally understood what Old Lady Su meant.
However, it is not up to Princess Rong to decide where the golden lotus stops.
"Do you believe this yourself?" Mrs. Xia asked in a low voice.
Old Mrs. Su: “…”
I don't quite believe it...
She actually felt that the golden lotus would probably stop in front of the little girl...
Old Mrs. Su was a little worried.
The limelight of this palace has been stolen by this little girl...
Wouldn't that offend the entire Rong Wang Mansion?
Forget it, they are guests at the palace, they can't take over the main role...
Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Su simply stood up and walked towards Tang Bao.
She called her daughter aside, and Jinlian naturally would not stop.
Mrs. Xia thought that Old Madam Su was going to change her clothes, so she didn't say anything.
The noise from the ladies naturally attracted the girls' attention.
"Look!"
A girl suddenly pointed forward and exclaimed.
Everyone followed the man's finger and saw a golden lotus slowly floating in the water ahead.
Speaking of which, among the girls, the one sitting at the top is Princess Huaning.
Sitting opposite Princess Huaning was the host Xuanyuan Hui.
If the golden lotus floats over, it will naturally pass by Princess Huaning and Xuanyuan Hui first.
As for Tang Bao and Xia Siya, they were not sitting in the front, but in the back.
Even though these girls usually call each other sisters, they all have a set of rules that are subtly followed.
Positions like C also exist.
However, most of them depend on the official rank of the elders in the family.
Just like attending a banquet in the palace, seats are arranged according to official ranks.
Xia Siya's father's rank was not high among these princes and nobles.
Therefore, Princess Linghua simply sat at the back and left a seat for Tang Bao and Xia Siya.
Otherwise, someone might say something and embarrass Xia Siya.
In this way, the golden lotus had to be almost at the end before it could float to Tang Bao.
"Oh my God! Is this the legendary golden lotus?" someone exclaimed.
Zheng Suxin turned her head to look at Xuanyuan Hui, also with a look of surprise: "Sister Hui, is this the good thing you said you wanted to show me?"
Xuanyuan Hui nodded and said with a smile, "I was originally thinking of taking you to the lotus pond to admire the lotus after dinner, but then I thought it would be better to let this golden lotus choose its own master."
"Choose your own master?" Zheng Suxin was a little puzzled.
The other girls also looked at Xuanyuan Hui, waiting for Xuanyuan Jin to clarify their doubts.
Xuanyuan Hui glanced at the golden lotus that was slowly floating towards her, suppressed her inner nervousness, and said, "Legend has it that the golden lotus has wisdom. Whoever the golden lotus stops in front of knows that they are destined to be together. In that case, the Rong Palace will give the golden lotus to that person and take it away..."
"I see……"
Everyone showed a look of sudden realization.
Then, he became excited again.
They naturally knew how rare this golden lotus was.
If I could get this golden lotus, it would probably bring me more fame than writing a hundred exquisite poems.
Song Xiangyan smiled and said, "Sister Hui is a kind-hearted woman. This golden lotus will definitely stop in front of her."
"Sister Yan, you're joking." Xuanyuan Hui said, "Sisters, each of you has your own destiny. Who knows where this golden lotus will end up?"
Song Xiangyan laughed sweetly and said, "I said this golden lotus will definitely stop in front of Sister Hui!"
After hearing what Song Xiangyan said, some agreed with her, while others just smiled and said nothing.
Not everyone is like Song Xiangyan, clinging to Prince Rong's Mansion.
Yang Ran glanced at Song Xiangyan and said in a moderate voice, "Princess Huaning is a daughter of a wealthy family. She has worshipped Buddha at Tianlong Temple for many years. She has a natural scent of sandalwood. The golden lotus is so kind that it might stop before the princess."
Xuanyuan Hui's usually calm expression suddenly froze.
This is exactly what she is most worried about.
However, he looked down at the koi swimming in the water in front of him and felt relieved.
At this time, Mrs. Su walked behind Tang Bao and whispered, "Mom is a little dizzy, help me over there to get some fresh air."
When Tang Bao heard this, she stood up immediately.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Did you drink?" Tang Bao asked with concern.
Xia Siya also stood up.
"Aunt Su, let me help you."
As he said this, he went to support Old Mrs. Su.
Old Mrs. Su patted Xia Siya's hand and motioned for her to sit down.
"Tang Bao, just help me walk over there, and you can continue to sit down and eat."
When Old Lady Su came over, she knew Xia Siya would be like this.
Xia Siya is about to marry into the Bai family.
If the golden lotus could stay in front of Xia Siya, it would undoubtedly bring a layer of gold to Xia Siya.
It was of great help to Xia Siya in her life at her husband's house after marriage.
Because of this incident, the eldest lady of the Bai family will certainly look up to this daughter-in-law who has great merits and good fortune.
Old Lady Su could naturally see that the eldest lady of the Bai family seemed to disdain the Xia family's status.
Therefore, she hoped that the golden lotus would stop in front of Xia Siya.
Anyway, with the power of the Bai Mansion, they are not afraid of the Rong Palace.
Maybe because of this incident, even the Empress Dowager would look up to Xia Siya, her nephew's wife.
In this way, Xia Siya has the support of the Empress Dowager, and her life after marriage will naturally be smoother.
After hearing what Old Lady Su said, how could Xia Siya be willing to listen?
She also treated Old Mrs. Su as her mother.
So, he insisted on supporting Old Mrs. Su.
Tang Bao seemed to understand something and blinked at Xia Siya.
"Sister Siya, the golden lotus will soon float over." Tang Bao whispered, "Come, I will give you a lot of blessings and let the golden lotus stop in front of you."
After Tang Bao finished speaking, he hugged Xia Siya tightly.
I wish I could kiss Xia Siya a few times.
Xia Siya: “…”
Looking at Tang Bao, then at Old Lady Su, I suddenly understood...
